I hope it doesn-t set before BS3-4. It will be a completely stuoid idea. All the poin is to see continuation of the George/Nicole story. And besides, from BS3-4 you clearly could understand that Nico and George haven't seen each other between the games and especially haven't been involved in same Great Adventure. For fans of the games it wold be really stipid to want just ignore events of BS3-4, which are great-great wonderful stories in itself. If you are 3d hater of BS - just restrain this feeling.

I really hope that Revolution Software will not abandon the storylines of BS3-4 in any way.
Continuation, not a prequel...

Pleeeeease, add Brazilian Portuguese Subtitles too!!
Brazil has a lot of Broken Sword fans!!
The first and second games we had with this option. And was amazing because we could understand all the history!
Please, think about it!

@Paul - Tony confirmed it in the comments section a while back & I believe Charles also mentioned in a recent interview that he see's the Serpent's Curse as following on from Broken Sword II. But yes, the Serpent's Curse is still a stand-alone game in the series.

Thanks for the news about Italian dub! BTW try to contact the original Italian dubbers for George and Nico, at least. Regarding the 3D model for George I really like the new one. Thanks a lot again for putting so much effort in satisfying our request.ìs.

Hey just following up from update two what characters I might want to see would be Eamon O'Mara and the inspector from Sleeping Dragon. The inspector I am talking about would be interesting because although he didn't seem perfect he was not a neo templar so could be useful the George and Nico.

This face is identified with the view much better in other games George, more masculine. And they appreciate a more elaborate end in Broken Sword 4, seemed to lack something, it was very bland. And in the teaser when Charles says "cut", a man crosses the screen with a picture of Kant, is this a clue?

It is kind of amazing how much difference a tiny adjustment can make - as far as I can tell, it's pretty much just a slight change to the jawline? Anyway, yes, the new version looks much more... *right*, I guess.

How about original colors for George's clothes?
Furthermore, this George is better, but don't be to close to 'runaway style' either for characters and for scenaries. We loved hand painted ones like ireland, syria, marseille etc.

He is also lighter skinned.. How about giving George some stubble?? More rugged look! Make him look like he has been through a Jungle or stuck on a beach set of a movie! George has to go through a rough patch at some point..

i want to thanks revolution from all spanish fans of the saga, we are hoping to reach the goal of 400.000 and i can't wait more to play the game.
george looks great by the wat, you guys are doing an incredible job!
Pd: It would be nice to see george in spain again ;)

I forgot to mention, there are a couple of things with the hair. The orange line down the middle parting of course - I don't think he was ginger. It should perhaps be more of a brown colour, just lower brightness and saturation. In the image of him looking to the left, the hair looks almost crash-helmet like. Cel-shaded shadows are quite strong but blonde hair would let light travel through it so the shadow would be much softer. It may be possible to even prevent the hair object casting a shadow on George but not altogether of course as it would affect drop shadows. The eyebrows might not need the stroke outline either as they are dark enough to distinguish from the skin. I uploaded a rough test here with those changes - http://i48.tinypic.com/vd0j12.jpg - I'd rather this not become a design by committee and while it's nice to have the opportunity to put in suggestions, I hope the Revolution team pick and choose what they feel will work best.

As a hardcore Broken Sword fan, I'm pretty disappointed resources are being literally wasted in voice acting for different languages. If people don't understand English, just create subtitle packs for their languages. George Stobbart is not George Stobbart if not played by Saxon.
We want a longer, deeper game. Don't waste money on a few thousand people that are not in the mood to read subtitles. This is Broken Sword. We want an epic game. Italian? Russian? Spanish? Really? o.0

Also liked the Wii - Version of the Director's Cut with some of its puzzles utilizing the Wiimote / motion detection and its "Coop-Mode". Additionally its a lot easier and much more comfortable when playing together with friends & family (with or without Coop) in front of a big TV screen instead of a "tiny" PC monitor .

And yes please, as mentioned before, custom cursors like in BS1+2 would be nice again :)
